This week FoNR committee members Sandal Hayes and Liz Gallie met at Ninney Rise with Kate Morschel and Rowena from the National Museum Australia. 

They had a tour of the house and we provided oral history. Both Kate and Rowena were familiar with the FoNR website and Iain McClaman's 'The Reef a Passionate History' and expressed how valuable the website and material is as a resource.

​They were impressed with Ninney Rise and very interested in the part the Ninney Rise story might play in a new dedicated exhibition at the museum on the Great Barrier Reef.

DO YOU HAVE ANY MEMORIES OF THIS TIME?
DO YOU RECOGNISE ANY OF THE PEOPLE?
A collection of photos was kindly donated to Friends of Ninney Rise (FoNR) by Virginia Edlington a close friend of the late Alison Busst.

As part of a CCRC RADF grant these have been uploaded onto the FoNR website.

You are invited to share your memories or any other information about this important period of time of our local history.

The collection gives an insight into the Busst's lives when they lived at Bedarra and later at Ninney Rise, Bingil Bay. The photos have been sorted into categories, each with a form so you can easily send us a message.
